Excerpt from A Good Old Age: A Sermon Occasioned by the Death of Hon. John Davis Though the companions of his youth may have been removed, they who have grown up beneath his eye fill their places in his regard. He leans gracefully and willingly on the children whom he once supported, he takes his grandchildren to his bosom with a father's love, he makes home the scene of endearments not less fond because they are touched by the sentiment of reverence, and, through the larger or narrower circle of social relations which he may fill, he becomes the object of a tender respect to those in whose feel ings he participates with an ease as agreeable to himself as it is delightful to them. Beautiful is the sympathy with all that is true and good, which age tempers, but does not abate. Beautiful to see how it will win confidence, and find its own satisfaction in making others happy.
